A bang when the dishwasher's valve shuts off is water hammer, and it can be fixed. Here is the Redlands guide.
The cause
The dishwasher's fast-closing solenoid valve stops water suddenly, slamming the pipes.
The fix
A water hammer arrestor on the dishwasher supply line absorbs the shock.
The pressure check
High water pressure makes it worse, so a regulator check helps.
The call
Quiet the pipes. Call 888-217-3585 and Redlands Plumbing Helpers will match you with a Redlands pro.
